This show from 'Festa al Cel 2019' features two pretty interesting historic airplanes, the Zlin Z-526 Akrobat and the Dornier Do-27 A5. Here's a bit of data on them:
The Zlin Z-526 Akrobat (Reg. Number "EC-BDS") owned by "Fundació Parc Aeronàutic de Catalunya" has an interesting story... It is a single-cockpit version derived from the Zlin Z-326 Trener Master "EC AXA", which flew for the first time in 1965. The spanish 'National Aerobatic Team' got a victory with the earlier Z-326 at the 3rd World Aerobatic Championship which took place in Bilbao in 1964. Then in 1966 the World Championship was celebrated in Moscow where the Z-526 were used, achieving a 4th position this time.
In 1989, this Zlin Z-526 Akrobat was abandoned in Palma de Mallorca along with the Zlin Trener Master up until 1996 where it was bought by '"Aeroclub Barcelona – Sabadell", which initiated the restoration in its hangar. Once the FPAC was founded, the restoration continued as part of the FPAC efforts. Once it was ready to fly again, the plane was moved to the Czech Republic to be test-flown by Zlin Aviation in Ostrokovice. The process concluded in september of 2004, after going through a general revision and it was delivered back to Sabadell together with the Zlin Trener Master 'EC-AXA' after a memorable trip through the Czech Republic, Austria, Germany and France.

As for the Dornier Do-27, it was the first mass-produced aircraft in Germany following the end of the Second World War. Spain has a few, as they were used as trainer aircraft back in the day. The plane is a single-engine STOL utility aircraft that was designed and manufactured by Dornier GmbH (later DASA Dornier and Fairchild-Dornier).
The Do 27's precursor, the Do-25, was developed by Dornier at the firm's facilities in Spain in order to satisfy a Spanish military requirement that called for a light utility aircraft with short takeoff and landing (STOL) performance. However, the Do-25 was not selected for production by Spain. Despite this, the aircraft was developed further to produce the Do-27, which was produced in quantity in both Spain and Germany. In addition to domestic sales, a large number of export customers, such as Portugal, emerged for the Do-27, and it had a lengthy service life with some examples still being used into the twenty-first century. The aircraft was appreciated for its relatively wide, comfortable cabin and excellent short-field performance. In terms of its configuration, the Do-27 was a classic high-wing, "tail-dragger" aircraft with fixed landing gear.
